The Detroit Lions have waived WR Derrick Williams, who struggled to find a role in two seasons with the team. He started training camp strong, but two drops in the first preseason game seemed to hurt his confidence.

Detroit Lions WR Derrick Williams is on the bubble to make the team this year. The Lions hoped he would develop into a dynamic special teams player, but he has not lived up to expectations and may now be a long-shot to make the roster with the addition of special teams ace Rashied Davis. Davis is also likely to take over as the No. 4 receiver, which is where Williams was previously slated.
